RoadTrip

Hejhej :)

Well, after I've recovered from my muscle ache from thursday, I went to a Roadtrip to Örebro. Harry, Claudia and Elisabeth, the other Austrian guys, took me with them (thank u :) ).
We drove to Örebro, watched the sights there and went strolling through the city. Örebro is a really nice town with a very beautiful castle. I guess it's really romantic in springtime, because the river that surrounds the castle has a lot of water lilies. Obviously, they weren't in flower anymore.
In Örebro there's also a mushroom-shaped water tower. When I first saw the pics I thought that it's not really beautiful and nothing special, but as soon as I stood next to it, I changed my mind. Still, is certainly not the most beautiful building in the world, but it's quite nice. And you have a great view from top of it.
Afterwards we drove to a hill a few miles south of Örebro. There was an exhibition called "Konst på hög" and there were some really strange, but somehow good-looking things to look at. (check the pictures here to see the obscure objects).
In Karlskoga we went to the Alfred Nobel Museum, which was quite interesting, but you didn't really learn much about his live. Basically you just saw his house and the rooms he used to work in. However, it was quite interesting and especially the area around the house is really beautiful.
Kristinehamn was the last station of our Road Trip. It's a small town near Karlstad and there's a Picasso statue. It's nice, but nothing too special. I was more interested in the cool looking tree opposite the statue ;)
We came home around 7 o'clok and I was really exhausted...but there was a Theme-Party going on (Dress up as your favourite movie star) and since I told everybody that I'll be there, I had no other chance than going. But I didn't dress up, because I had a) no idea and b) nothing funny to wear. Some people were really dressed up which was really funny ;) I met Superman, 2 pretty women and hang out with Madonna (see pic). Probably I'll dress up on the next party, depending on the theme ;) Although I was tired, it was a funny party.
I'm already looking forward to the next weekend - on Friday there's Sofia's Birthdayparty (the finnish girl on my corridor) and on Saturday I want to go the Nöjesfabriken.
But before the weekend I have to study...I must write an essay about the differences of the Swedish anti-discrimination laws compared to the Austrian ones *yuck* I'm so glad when this course (Aspects of Sweden) is over...
Well, that's it so far... I'll write again as soon as something spectacular, important, unbelievable, whatever thing happens. Meanwhile, you can check the Örebropictures and the new Partypics...
